Photo Critique #224

Friday Photo Critique is our weekly community project, where we publish a photograph submitted by one of our wonderful readers, then ask you all to offer constructive feedback on the image. It’s a great way to learn more about photography, express your viewpoint, and have your own image critiqued!

Quick Ground Rules

Play nice! We’ve deliberately chosen photographs that aren’t perfect, so please be constructive with any criticism.

You can also link to photographs that you feel offer a great example of this type of image shot exceptionally well.

Without further ado, here is this week’s candidate for Friday Photo Critique!

A friend's girlfriend was releasing some of her own music and needed a nice simple portrait to use as the cover art. I lit it with two Lastolite on the background and two Bowens Gemini 500w flash heads into reflective umbrellas, 45 degrees above and to the side of model.
